Stray into a bus lane for a few yards & the law jumps on you. Drive 2mph over the limit ditto. Stop for 2 minutes on a single yellow line ditto. But block the QE2 Bridge - no problem at all. Please go ahead. Can we offer you a Vegan lunch while you're there? Pronoun Police
The twins are 24 now. This is who they lost when they were just five years old. It feels like a lifetime ago and yesterday. Irreplaceable. Life - it's not for the faint-hearted.

I loathe Sundays. Always have. But today I had to say goodbye to my eldest son who is off to live in the USA tomorrow morning. So exciting for him. I seem to have something in my eye.
Can everyone now PLEASE stop their lunatic conspiracy theory garbage & let this young woman have the peace and privacy she needs? My twins lost their Mum when they were just five, so I relate far too well to Kate & William having to talk to their children. Give them space & love
Happy 75th birthday to this one. 20 fun-filled years on-air together, five days a week & never a cross word. Can't say that for many people. A generous, funny, genuine man.
Did I miss the memo where everything outside home is a gym? Where the f*** have all these f*****g joggers come from? Do joggers understand the concept of 2 metres separation or do I have to beat it into them, one by one? Happy to oblige.

My beautiful young wife died of cancer when our twin sons were 5 years old. This stirs heartbreaking memories. An emotional tsunami.Both boys are now conquering the world. My work is done. Deborah James dies aged 40 following cancer battle via @

RIP my lovely friend Louise Clifford. Despite endless awful illnesses & countless major operations, being often confined to a wheelchair, she never once complained. We would laugh, joke and take the p*** out of the world. She was an inspiration through her courage & resilience.
RIP At the height of their fame, I sat next to Sarah & the girls (except Cheryl) for tea at

. She was friendly was charming & delightful company. Next to her was my late wife. Fuck Breast Cancer, Took them both so young.

Happy 25th birthday to these little guys, Twin 1 & Twin 2. I really should get round to giving them names but I don't like to rush things. Born prematurely. Weighed under 3lbs each. Not expected to survive. Lost their Mum aged just 5. Now conquering the world. Love them so much.
RIP Barry Cryer - one of my comedy heroes for decades. A towering talent whom I met on a number of occasions. I was, & remain, in awe of his talent. What a legacy. one of the greatest wits & comedic writers of all time. Thank you for brightening up a dark world.

Just heartbreaking. You can never tell your kids often enough how much you love them & hug them loads. Snowdonia latest: Bodies of four missing teenagers found in crashed car
Today my thoughts are with my twins who lost their extraordinarily beautiful Mummy when they were just five years old. Forever in our hearts.

Stood on my balcony at 8pm & stated to clap. Nothing. Then as if on cue the entire area burst into wild applause & cheering to show support for our magnificent
@NHSuk
. I'm not ashamed to say I burst into tears. Thank you. You are true heroes & please know how much we love you.
I suddenly became incensed today when I realised that the last duty our much missed, beloved HM Queen performed just before her passing was to have to formally meet Liz Truss. What a waste of the precious time Her Majesty had left before she left us.
@RobbieRinder
Privately! Even recently one 'celebrity' charged £16,000 for a one hour charity appearance then refused to have photos with the charity recipients. I find that reprehensible.

And all they wanted, I'm sure, Robbie, is a peaceful, quiet life. This situation, caused by one man, is just heartbreaking. Suddenly it's 1939 not 2022. The echoes are truly horrendous. i don't believe the Russian population actually wanted this insane conflict.

Tragic. Sadly I can totally comprehend this loss. My stunning wife died from breast cancer when our twins were just five years old. My condolences to Rachel's family. Heart-breaking.

"We want to be left alone. Stop following us. Right, we're off to Canada, California & anywhere else beginning with 'C' because we hate publicity. What's that? A huge cheque? Oh, hang on... "
RIP Dave Myers. I was an unashamed fan for many years. His natural warmth, humour & skill seemed effortless. A rare talent whom I greatly admired.
#ripdavemyers
Oh to be able to pick up the phone and chat or pop round for a delicious dinner. Today reminds so many of us of what we've lost and can never replace.

I didn't realise that a side-effect of COVID-19 was the desire to watch The Kardashians. Oh dear god! I am now washing my hands every 60 seconds, just in case. I'd rather the side-effect was to eat your own leg. Glad you are feeling better. Stay safe.
Cancer. It took my Father. It took my young wife when our twins were just 5. It's a brutal, unforgiving, undiscriminating disease. To all who are fighting it, I wish you strength. To all who've lost loved ones, my deepest sympathies.

It's a wonder we don't have to endure a one hour special with Oprah congratulating them on being able to walk and chew gum at the same time
Last saw Des at
@TonyHatchMusic
80th birthday party. Des was frail & in a wheelchair. Afterwards I pushed him back to the hotel. I felt I was in the presence of a true legend & was honoured to help him. A lovely man who gave millions so much joy. Love to Jodie and family RIP
I’m so sad to hear that the wonderful Des O’Connor has died. He was a true pro and a gorgeous person. My love to Jodie and all his family at this sad time. Rest in peace Des. You are sorely missed already

Was reccomended to The Madness of Crowds only yesterday. Immediately bought it
@audibleuk
. Stunning. The opening introductory chapter is the best written overview that I've seen / heard in many years. Yes I know late to the party but at least I made it.

Corbyn's filthy legacy will take a long time to be expunged. They are wild-eyes fanatics. If that idiot told them to drink the Kool Aid they would.
@francesweetman
No. Because then the media have to turn 180 degrees and stop telling us that the NZ Prime Minister is a Saint and the greatest person on the planet.
Something happened today thats never, ever happened before. Was having coffee with my son in a new cafe & the owner came over & asked if I "was that writer" as "his wife had just bought my book" 'Shout At The Moon' ^ would I sign it next time I was in. It made my entire day
Best birthday EVER! My thanks to my extraordinary daughter

, my twins, all my amazing cousins - your generosity & hospitality made me very emotional. What a day & night! Thanks to all the gang at

Just gave myself a haircut. I wanted the full experience, so I kept myself waiting for 30 minutes and read copies of Autocar from 2001. Obviously I asked myself "Going anywhere nice for your holidays?" "See the match on Saturday?"What are we doing this time.. a trim & tidy up?".

@HackneyAbbott
Dear Miss Abbott. The day I take any advice from you I will also be made Pope. In fact the latter is the more likely to happen.
Oh FFS!!! Just in time for the Christmas festivities. Can't recall the last time I felt so rough. Just when you thought that 2022 had no more curve balls to throw at you.
